Answer by Dr Paul S, MD (doctor) on Tue 29, Jul 2008 09:34pm:

Hi there. After a miscarriage, the cervix are supposed to close after the passage of any fetal or uterine material. A closed cervix protects the uterus from infection or any unwanted microorganisms. This is the natural process. However, there are instances where the cervix fails to close after a miscarriage, and the most common reason for this is that there can be a retained placenta or any conception material inside the uterus. This would warrant a currettage procedure to evacuate all of these residual tissues. Regards.
